I'm so thrilled that Nebraska just won a water rights lawsuit against Kansas.
"Kansas' water czar has lost an initial claim that Nebraska must pay at least $72 million for using more than its allotted share of Republican River water.
An arbitrator ruled in a preliminary decision that Kansas can only seek payment for damages it allegedly suffered, not payment for what Nebraska gained.
Nebraska Attorney General Jon Bruning hailed the decision as an initial victory in the fight with Kansas where millions of Nebraska taxpayer dollars are at stake.
"I am pleased the arbitrator's preliminary decision recognizes that Kansas' claims are limited to actual damages, if any can be shown,'' he said Monday.
